Army Wife Life

ARMY Life and Love

Love always finds you when you least expect it to!
I met my husband in 2007...
We dated very briefly before he deployed for a 15 month tour in Iraq. 
We were 26 years old back then.
 Love was sustained through daily phonecalls, the occasional skype, and countless care packages. 

It's amazing what the heart is capable of!


In 2009 I flew to Oahu, Hawaii to welcome him home from Iraq. Oahu, HI is AMAZING, no doubt, but not much compares to the feeling of watching a brigade come home and one of them being your SOUL MATE.




We were stationed at Schofield Barracks for just one year.
We had "other" plans for our family than another long deployment.
 (His brigade deployed just 2 months after we moved.)






Orders got us out of "infantryland" and into a Recruiting Office.  Allowing us a 3 year break from deployments.

These orders brought us back to our hometown in VA.
And made more of our dreams come true.

Lucas is an incredible step father to my first son Lance. 
I took on the package deal of being an army wife and he fully committed to my package deal of 2. 
And then came Landon in April 2011. He's another blue eyed, blondie! 
I am officially outnumbered. 
Infantry would have never allowed us the family time that Recruiting has.
My husband's been able to coach our older son's football team, see our baby grow and help me figure out how to raise a kid again (remember my boys are 11 years apart)
and vacation with us throughout the year.





We have less than a year left on this duty before we move to another division, another post, another group of friends, and another dream in our love story!


Our orders just came through in November...our next home is Colorado Springs, CO.
We report Aug. 2013!

Love your blog! You are going to love Colorado, it is beautiful. I grew up there with my dad in the Army, although only for a few years, but we loved it. Put you on my "Blog Love" page 'cause I love finding a network of fellow military spouse bloggers! {I married a Marine...keepin' to the military life!}

Beautiful family! I'm a marine wife so I hear ya on most things you mentioned above. My husband has been an instructor and done different types of jobs that required no deployments. We are moving in June than he is up for a year deployment in November. Ugh!
